Tantalize your taste buds and treat yourself with rich flavours and subtle complexities of the Devil’s Manhattan. Notes of caramel, oak, sweet whiskey, aromatic herbs and spices stir into a one of a kind drink. Something that tastes this good, should be a sin.

Devil's Manhattan

2 oz. Maker’s Mark Bourbon

1 oz. Southern Comfort

1/2 oz. Sweet Vermouth

3 Dashes of Angostura Bitters

Lemon twist garnish

Method: Start by putting ice into a martini or cocktail coupe to chill the glass. In a mixing glass with ice pour the Maker’s Mark and the rest of the ingredients. Stir with a long spoon until chilled (30 to 90 seconds). Discard the ice that is chilling our glass and then strain our stirred drink into the glass. Peel a long thin strip of lemon, roll it up then extend it while twisting it over the cocktail. Let rest hanging over the rim.

Tips: Stirring this drink causes less dilution (watering down) from the ice melting than shaking it would.

There are many ways to modify this drink to find your favourite. For example, try using Maker’s Mark 46 which is incredibly smooth and rich in flavour from longer aging. Or substitute a different type of bitters for an enhanced flavour of your choosing.
